Procedure for Traction Pump Flow Check:

1.Make sure hydraulic oil is at normal operating tem- perature by operating the machine for approximately 10 minutes.

2.Make sure machine is parked on a level surface with the cutting units lowered and off. Make sure engine is off.

3.Make sure the hydraulic tank is full.

4.Make sure that traction pedal is adjusted to the neu- tral position (see Traction Pedal in the Adjustments Sec- tion).

5.Make sure that pump drive belt is adjusted properly. (see Hydraulic Pump Drive belt in the Adjustments Sec- tion).

6.Block up one front traction wheel off the floor to allow flow through the traction circuit.

7.Chock remaining wheels to prevent movement of the machine.

8.Attach a heavy chain to the rear of the machine frame and something solid in the shop.

9.Make sure parking brake is off.

10.Put 2WD/3WD selector to 2WD so the rear wheel will not spin.

CAUTION

Operate all hydraulic controls to relieve system pressure and avoid injury from pressurized hydraulic oil.

11.Clean hose fitting and disconnect hose from the el- bow connection on the top of the traction pump.

IMPORTANT: Make sure oil flow indicator arrow on the flow gauge is showing that the oil will flow from the motor through the tester and into the hose.

12.Install tester in series with the motor and the discon- nected hose. Make sure the flow control valve is fully open.

13.One person should sit on the seat and operate the machine while another person reads the tester. Start en- gine and move the throttle to full speed (3200  100 RPM).

16.

Observe flow gauge.

 

 

 

 

TESTER READING: minimum flow of 13 GPM

 

17.

Release traction pedal and turn off machine.

 

 

18.

Disconnect tester from elbow connection and hose.

 

Reconnect hose to elbow connection.

 

19.

If specifications are not met, the traction pump

 

needs to be repaired or replaced as necessary.

Toro 2600D, 2300-D service manual Procedure for Traction Pump Flow Check

2600D, 2300-D specifications

The Toro 2300-D and 2600-D are industry-leading reel mowers specifically designed for the professional turf care market. Known for their durability, efficiency, and advanced technology, these models provide exceptional cutting performance for golf courses, sports fields, and other high-quality turf applications.

One of the standout features of the Toro 2300-D and 2600-D is their powerful engines. Powered by efficient diesel engines, these mowers deliver robust performance while being fuel-efficient. This capability ensures extended operation periods, allowing grounds crews to maintain pristine conditions across large areas without frequent refuelling stops.

Both models are equipped with Toro’s exclusive DPA (Dual Precision Adjust) cutting system, providing precise cutting heights for optimal turf health. This system allows for adjustments from 1/8 inch to 1 inch, enabling operators to achieve the correct level for various grass types and turf conditions. This level of precision ensures a clean cut and promotes the overall health of the grass.

Another notable characteristic is the ergonomic design, which includes a comfortable operator station to reduce fatigue during extended use. The controls are intuitively located, enabling easy access and operation, and the mower's compact design allows for nimble maneuverability around obstacles, ensuring that every inch of turf can be accurately maintained.

In terms of technology, the Toro 2300-D and 2600-D feature advanced traction control systems that provide excellent grip and stability on slopes and uneven terrain. The lightweight alloy construction of the frame contributes to this stability, giving operators confidence whether they are working on flat surfaces or more challenging landscapes.

Furthermore, these mowers are designed with sustainability in mind. The diesel engines not only offer efficiency but also are compliant with strict emissions standards, making them an environmentally responsible choice for turf maintenance.

The Toro 2300-D and 2600-D also feature a robust maintenance management system that alerts operators of necessary maintenance tasks, promoting longer lifespans for components and enhancing overall performance.

In summary, the Toro 2300-D and 2600-D deliver cutting-edge technologies and features, including powerful engines, versatile cutting systems, ergonomic design, advanced traction control, and sustainability focus. These models represent the pinnacle of reel mower engineering, making them ideal choices for professionals dedicated to maintaining the finest playing surfaces.
